Trichiasis surgery for trachoma

The manual is designed to provide specific information for TT trainers who are training others to undertake surgery for TT. It is divided into two parts. Part One covers the specific skills required for training TT surgeon candidates and serves as a resource document. 

Each section begins with one or more specific learning objectives; most include practice exercises. Trainers can use this manual as a guide for creating training presentations, use it in other ways to assist in training, or elect to have trainees read the material directly. 

The manual contains both knowledge that should be imparted during training and a description of the skills to be developed and assessed during practice and surgery sessions. Part Two is designed only for the trainers of the surgeon trainees and covers selection and final assessment of the trainees.
